ABOUT CHRIS...
Chris Quinn has received glowing reviews for his solo releases and live performances. Maverick Magazine called him "A master of the acoustic guitar and a quality songwriter". With roots in both England and Scotland and spending part of his early career touring across the USA; his own songs are heavily influenced by British, Celtic and American traditional music.
Live you can also expect masterful fingerstyle delta blues, bluegrass and swing / jazz guitar and some of the finest acoustic guitar playing you've ever heard!
Over the past decade regular performances with some the world's most celebrated guitarists: Stochelo Rosenberg, Clive Carroll and Robin Nolan to name a few, brought Chris to the attention of guitar industry insiders. This lead to endorsement deals with AER amps and Steve Toon guitars and a regular job teaching acoustic guitar at the IGF Summer School alongside Guitar Techniques and Guitarist Magazine editors.
"World class - Constant international touring over the last decade including a stint opening for the Jools Holland Orchestra as well as playing guitar for some of the worlds leading gypsy jazz guitarists has given this guitarist and vocalist an enviable confidence".
